I'm told Windows Vista has it built into the desktop (I'm waiting for Service Pack 2!) and the latest version of MS Outlook has it built in too. Then there's <a href="http://widgets.yahoo.com/" rel="nofollow">Yahoo desktop Widgets</a>, <a href="http://www.google.com/reader" rel="nofollow">Google Reader</a> (as well as the aforementioned <a href="http://www.google.com/ig" rel="nofollow">iGoogle</a>). Similar to iGoogle are <a href="http://www.pageflakes.com" rel="nofollow">Pageflakes</a> and <a href="http://www.netvibes.com" rel="nofollow">Netvibes</a> - all ways of making a personal homepage of all your favourite website feeds. Modern browsers (IE7, Safari and Firefox) have ways of bookmarking and reading RSS feeds too. I'm not convinced they are all that intuitive right now for less techie people, but once people see how powerful RSS can be, I guess things will consolidate and get easier to use. I really think RSS is a revolution -- its just one of those simple things that you end up thinking "how did I do without this?" If anyone knows other ways of consuming RSS please add a comment!
